This week's ballot features five impressive nominees. From the baseball field, we have stars from Windsor and Timnath. On the track, Wellington, Fossil Ridge, and Fort Collins are represented by athletes pushing their limits. Your vote will decide who takes home the weekly honor.

Voting is now open! Head to coloradoan.com/sports to cast your ballot. The polls will remain open until 11:59 a.m. this Thursday, April 16th, with the winner announced later that same day. Don't miss your chance to support these local talents.

This weekly recognition has highlighted some phenomenal athletic achievements throughout the school year. Past winners have set a high bar, from Rocky Mountain football's Bode Nesbitt returning the season's opening kickoff for a touchdown to Fossil Ridge volleyball's Emery Johnson dominating at the Nike Southwest Nationals. Now, it's a new group's turn to shine.

These athletes exemplify the dedication and performance we celebrate. Whether you're a fan of a powerful swing on the diamond or explosive speed on the track, check out the nominees and show your support. Every vote counts in recognizing the hard work of these local high school stars!
